I have been watching the British Bake-off. The crust at the sides/bend of the pan needs to be thinner and the lemon curd needed to be a shade thicker. The crusts were perfectly crumbly and flakey, the whipping cream and meringue mounded very high. 10/10 for flavor on both of them!!!

Your mission, should you choose to accept it: bake a favorite flavor pie for each parent. You have 8 hours. You may access the internet for advice but for the most part must use a recipe, your knowledge, and experience. There are no do-overs or gimmies. GO!

I am at my parents' home and their black lab is wearing the Cone of Shame! She don't like it! My parents claim that she bats at them with it on purpose.

For the lemon lovers: artichoke pasta with lemon sauce, green olives, lemon garlic breadcrumbs, and Parmesan. To. Die. For.

Today's dinner:

This will NOT win any awards for appearance but I can guarantee it will taste delicious! Lemon cake with limoncello, mascarpone and blueberries. I can't wait to cut into it and then deny myself a second piece!!!

Alas. I am sorry to report that I have misplaced my cat once again. I hope the CRDS has not gotten her. Anyone seen her?

My mother. 89 y/o. Highschool pic. Very shy and insecure. So pretty. Look at those dimples! Wanted to go to college but misogyny said "no". Now: almost 70 yrs married, 5 kids, serious heart disease, cognitively intact, still smart and beautiful. I have love, deep respect and pride for my Mom.

Meet my puppy cat. Begging without the drool. What does she want? I will have to follow her. We communicate via context and the tail.

He was squeezed in next to me in the chair. I wanted to take a nap and he lifted his head in shock when I moved. 15 min later: I had a snuggle buddy on the couch too.

I have been wanting to make a red velvet cake for several weeks now. Have done so with assist from a Bluesky friend - behold (there are areas that need some work to be sure):

Part 2 of self-care.

Ok. Read the news. Saw the tweets, comments, etc. Trying to still my racing heart and sense of outrage. Think I found a little relief. New sweatshirt from Mahogany Mommies. Love it. And found this, just now.

Okay. I am trying to distract self from the insanity that has been injected into international politics over the last several hours. Canada and apparently, now, Scotland I APOLOGIZE!!!! And here is my distraction: mini chicken pot pies.

Helping my parents clean out their garage. Found this: it is the #2 dinner bell. Salesman would drive up/down road selling bells to farmers - to call the hands in from the fields. The # determined the price and people were competitive!
